Hello Darren! This is the first time I’m logging into this forum in at least four years, but I just had to share something with you that I stumbled onto!

While watching a popular youtube series called Buzzfeed Unsolved, the cast ventured into the London Tombs and found….. the baby!! If you go to the 9:14 minute mark in this video you’ll see it, unmistakable despite being referred to as an “exorcist baby.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCcGmo4pp7I

If you happen to know how your baby ended up down there, I’d love to know!!

The Saga of Darren Shan / Cirque du Freak inspired craftstag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.179652017-11-27T23:46:12Z1970-01-01T00:00:00ZVampaneze-Mistress
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else has made crafts for their home?
I would love to see what other fans have made and created for their love of Darren shan and the book series

Here is this mini gift box I created using a spare manga I had. It’s a shame I wish there was more merchandise such as shirts, jewellery and even bags.

The Owners of the Carpet Factorytag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.179642017-09-09T17:52:40Z1970-01-01T00:00:00ZhotformaxIf the owners of the carpet factory where Traz and everyone worked tolerated his brutality because he kept costs down, then I think they were either afraid of him or worse than him. Is that accurate, Darren?

Steve Headcanonstag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.179632017-07-22T13:20:57Z2017-07-22T13:23:22ZVampateaseLordYes, Steve is my favourite character. I adore/love him a lot, and his character is, in my opinion, the best in the whole entire series. I have a thing for dark and twisted minds, oops. :/
Anyway, sometimes I think deeply, and see more to things than the books/manga/movie showed. Here are two that would totally change your opinion on Stevie. Please don’t hate and stay stuff like “Steve fans will do anything to portray him as innocent!!1!!!” Because that’s just plain rude and false. I know he is quite far away from the term “innocent”, and remember these are just HEADCANONS.——————————————————————————————————————————-
1)Larten’s wrong result
So Larten can differentiate between good and evil blood. Awesome. When he tastes Steve’s blood, he doesn’t recognize the taste as good, so he immediately freaks out. But what if Steve’s blood wasn’t evil? What if it was neutral?
You heard me right, folks.
What if it meant that he would become good OR bad, depending on what path he was pushed to. But since Larten had only ever tasted good or bad blood types, he didn’t recognize the neutral type.
Then he called Steve evil and pushed him to insanity.
I mean, truth be told, who the heck talks to a kid like that?——————————————————————————————————————————-
2) Tiny’s meddling
Okay, so what if after Darren’s run away, about 3 months later, Steve’s desire to meet Darren increases. But he isn’t angry anymore. He believes the story Darren told him about “saving his life.” SO now he doesn’t hate Darren. He decides to become Lord of the Vampaneze and reunite himself with Darren and make the two clans befriend each other, that way he’d also prove to Larten that he was not evil.
But Tiny doesn’t like that plan. He conjures up fake illusions and stuff and shows them to Steve, where Larten and Darren are mercilessly trash-talking Steve and laughing at him. Steve doesn’t believe Tiny at first, but as Tiny keeps showing him the illusions, he starts doubting Darren and swears on revenge.——————————————————————————————————————————-
That’s the end of it!
Truth be told, I really disliked the way Larten treated Steve at the Cirque. Evil or not, he was still a goddamn kid. Who yells something like that at a child? The brain and thinking of children is critical and complicated, and if Steve was exposed to negativity of that level (imagine your hero telling you you’re evil scum) then I don’t blame him for losing his sanity.He was what, 13, 14 at that time? A very delicate age. Psychology has taught me a lot of things, and one of those is that children take things to heart more often and seriously than adults do.
And was Steve really evil?
I mean evil people don’t mind being called evil, but Steve took it personally.
Fishy, eh?
So instead of hating on this beautiful,melancholy character, why not show him some love instead?

Forgettabletag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.178682017-06-15T14:35:53Z1970-01-01T00:00:00ZhotformaxThe book I’m reading, “Vampires In The Movies” by Adam Woog, said that “Cirque Du Freak” was forgettable. Just because the vampires in here aren’t attractive doesn’t mean it had to be forgettable. This is the way vampires were portrayed in folklore.

A vampire Book I’m readingtag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.178102017-06-06T19:21:55Z1970-01-01T00:00:00Zhotformax actually agreed with Darren, the character that you have to be a crazy person if you want to become a vampire. The story is called “Vampires: Do They Exist?” and the passage said “No sane person would ever succumb to the vampire’s kiss, even if it meant living forever”. This parallels Darren who said “What kind of a crazy person would want to become a vampire?” to Steve when Steve expressed interest in becoming a vampire.

Cassandra Claretag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.178092017-05-26T20:04:41Z1970-01-01T00:00:00ZhotformaxWhen I was walking around the Auburn Mall today, I saw that Cassandra Clare’s book series “The Shadow Hunters”, has a new book in the series called “Lord of Shadows”. It sounds like Cassandra Clare must have read Darren’s story “Lord of The Shadows” before she wrote her book. I know one word is missing from Cassandra’s title, but it sounds like there is a similarity between these two books.

The Only Limit Is Your Own Imaginationtag:https:,2017:/www.darrenshan.com/messageboard/viewthread/.171022017-03-11T14:55:34Z1970-01-01T00:00:00ZShade
I don’t know about you but everyday I come across obstacles that seem to exist for the sole purpose of annoying all hell outta me. Sometimes I just wish I could pull what I need out of thin air and get on with my life - but we all know that, sadly, it simply doesn’t work like that.

Except in your very own imagination. Which, incidentally, may be manifested here. This is your own application of imagination.

So, I dare you to make yourself a character, and write all that you dream. No rules (except the usual forum ones) and god mode is required.
